Manager Craig Counsell said that once Smith knocks some rust off he will be an option to close games along with Jeremy Jeffress, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Haudricourt reports.
The original plan back before Smith got injured was to use a tandem closer attack, presumably playing the matchups with Smith getting the looks against lefty-heavy spots in the opposing lineup. That plan appears to be back on, at least once Smith shows that he's back to prior form. Smith was going to be useful even if he wasn't getting saves just based on the strikeouts and ratios he is capable of posting, and now it sounds like there should be some saves to go along with the skills.
